In the regular season, he was good enough to beat the '85 Bears. However, in the post-season, he couldn't beat the '85 Patriots - at home - in Miami - and was badly outplayed by the great Tony Eason. Check out his performances in all the Dolphins' post-season losses. No defense? He was drafted by a team that was just in the Super Bowl. Do you think David Woodley's passing got them there or was it the Killer B's defense?

No running game? Another myth. Plenty of examples of teams that won a Super Bowl with far less of a running game than Marino had in Miami. What was the excuse at Pitt? Bobby Bowden said that Pitt's 1980 team was the greatest college football team he ever saw. Maybe check how Marino played in big games. Zero rings at every level. Stats don't lie.

It's not hard to see which quarterbacks raised their game in the post-season as compared to their regular season career quarterback rating.

Did you see Marino's performances in each of the Dolphins' playoff losses? He was putrid on many occasions.

How did he fare at Pitt in big games when he had one of the greatest teams around him???? No one answers that one.

Quite a large sample size equating to ZERO rings at EVERY level.
